4.85

求異事者。釋上報恩果報也。此非菩薩所行正行。故云異事。報恩,酬過去之恩。果報,望未來之報。自身不施義當現在,護亦防也。意令於此三世事中防護,悉皆不著,即是不住色等布施也。

"Seeking different matters": explains 'repaying kindness' and 'karmic reward' above. These are not the correct practices performed by a bodhisattva, hence they are called 'different matters'. Repaying kindness requites past kindness; karmic reward looks forward to future retribution; not giving due to one's own body corresponds to the present. 'Guarding' also means preventing. The intention is to cause one to guard against and completely avoid clinging to the matters of these three times; this is precisely giving without abiding in form and so forth.
